Cheating, Serial-Divorcing Pig Upset By Adultery Question

Was there a highlight to tonight’s GOP debate? No. There is a GOP debate every four or five hours, constantly, forever, and there cannot be a highlight to something that is ongoing and eternal, like CNN Headline News or the Lake of Fire, in Hell. But CNN number-reader John King did manage to really get the amoral jewelry-debt piglet Newt Gingrich in full squeaking rage because, boo hoo, somebody asked Newt about his endless adultery and divorcing and banging other ladies while he’s married, etc.

So did the multimillionaire academic-politician-author Newt come clean and apologize to America for being such a disgusting sleazebag who always buys new whores with his $500,000 Tiffany line of credit? Haha, of course not. Instead, he said this:

As someone who actually knows what open relationships are all about, I am disgusted that Newt actually thinks what he has with other people can be classified as "relationships."

PsycWench

See: Tiffany's, line of revolving credit = $500,000.

tealsheart

OPEN as in LEGS, and its a well known FACT that Tiffany opens lots of legs

elviouslyqueer

Your lips, God's ears.

hagajim

And I, for one, laughed at his faux rage for even being asked about it. Talk about the hypocrisy. When he and all his holier-than-thou brethren were giving Clinton the morality beat down the only thing this gas bag wasn't doing that Clinton did was get caught. I assume he bought a big enough diamond to keep Callista quiet.

CHUBBY CHASER LIBEL!!11!

Joshua Norton

So Gingrich wanted an open marriage.

That would have been one helluva of a Craigslist ad.

anniegetyerfun

Repulsive fuckfaced beluga seeks attractive female under 40 for dalliance that will eventually result in whore diamonds for you.

I don't believe a word of this "Gingrich banging a staffer named Callista Bisek at the very moment he was trying to get President Clinton impeached for, roughly, the exact same thing" as it was obvious to me at the time, as it should have been to any Merkin, that the man was far too exhausted from loving his country for so long and for so hard to be able to get it up for and get it on with a mere woman. Thank you.

Me, and Callista's merkin, and all the other merkins out there support the Newt. Neo-dadaism lives!

paris biltong

To the extent that "roughly" takes into consideration the material difference that separates a cigar from an actual dick.

Gleem_McShineys

An actual dick, but perhaps not Newt's actual dick. While it is loathe to consider, you have to take into account god-knows-what kind of chafing and/or scabbing might occur in the dark folds under that droopy tum-tum.

Gah.

PsycWench

If by "loving his country" you are using a euphemism for "screwing it over repeatedly", yes you are correct.

tessiee

"the man was far too exhausted from loving his country for so long and for so hard to be able to get it up for and get it on with a mere woman."

Oh, how I *want* to believe that!
You don't know how much I *want* to believe that Newt's tiny Republican weiner, hidden among the rolls of stretchmarked fat and white pubic hair, stayed limp and floppy no matter what Callista…
*dies*

"The speaker once again pledged to say during every public appearance that Americans have the right to know the truth about the Lewinsky matter and that the president is not above the law."

Americans have the right to know! Have fun with that, Stay Puft Marshmallow Candidate.

Trinket

God, no shit. Even worse that at least THREE women have.

coolhandnuke

I could smell the sulphuric desperation swirling around Newt as he delivered the fat thumbed combination to John King's chin. Who knew this chickenhawk chickenshit limp vulture could be a South Carolina GameCock.

I'm frankly astounded that the GOP would take trash like Newt and allow him to campaign for President.

BarackMyWorld

Lucky for John Edwards, whose corruption and hypocrisy was a fraction of Gingrich's, no one found out what he was up to until after the campaign was over.

Callyson

You go to war with the candidates you have, not with the candidates you wish you had…

This is so true. I wish the damnable, ignorant narcissist Herman Cain had made it this far….I don't think the racist twits would have been able to keep from going Michael Richards and just start shouting "N@@@@@!" at the teevee.

hagajim

GOP now = Grand Old Pussbags.

tessiee

Please, you think they care that he's trash (and I agree with you, he is)? Like they give two shits about Newt's wives/girlfriends, or any woman, or anyone who isn't a white male millionaire? They'd run a nose-picking serial killer if he was a) white, b) christian, c) willing to do anything, anything whatsoever to sell out the country for the benefit of the 1%, — and I'd be surprised if anyone in their little He-Man Woman Hater's Club weren't nearly as loathsome as Newt (but perhaps better at hiding it).

The GOP is so morally bankrupt that Newt, Romney and Santorum are the best they can come up with. I any of them manage to win the general election then this country deserves everything it is going to get.

BarackMyWorld

In fairness, didn't we already know he's a lying, hypocritical, sleazy, arrogant, egotistical, misogynistic, opportunistic, corrupt demagogue? What's the point in bringing it up again?

(Just kidding. Actually, I think John King should be commended on his restraint for not punching that piece of shit in the face.)

Barb

How can you have the mess we have in New Orleans, and not have had deep investigations of the federal government, the state government, the city government, and the failure of citizenship in the Ninth Ward, where 22,000 people were so uneducated and so unprepared, they literally couldn't get out of the way of a hurricane.” [Speaking at the Conservative Political Action Conference, March 2007]
—————–
Do you think he will be able to stay in the race until the 2012 Louisiana Republican primary on March 24, 2012

Wow, he actually said that at CPAC? I assume the audience applauded the "they literally couldn't get out of the way of a hurricane” part.

Huzzah!! Let's drown more poor people! No investigations required.

tessiee

"Wow, he actually said that at CPAC? I assume the audience applauded the "they literally couldn't get out of the way of a hurricane” part."

And that's the part he said in *public*. I have no trouble whatsoever imagining the conversation after the cameras were turned off, a la "Those People have so many babies, they'll replace the population in a year" (only less grammatical and about 1000x more hateful, of course).

fuflans

well i sure as hell hope he's staying in the race.

i mean that quite seriously.

Negropolis

I don't have any snark for that. That is just plain disgusting. What's he going to do, next? Blame the Jews for the Holocaust? Fuck that guy; fuck 'im all the way down to hell.

The faux incredulity and the misrepresentation of the history of the event are just beyond evil. He deserves the GOP nomination. Anyone that tripped out on his own ego deserves the nomination of this infinitely bitter, morally bankrupt "party." Let it die, let it die…

When I was in school, many, many years ago (it was a parochial school and there were three Jewish kids who went there), the nuns, and some of the older kids, would routinely repeat the Blood Libel — you know, that bullshit about Jews killing Christian babies and using their blood to make matzoh. Even as a child, I thought it was ridiculous (being of a geeky turn of mind, I tried to figure out the disposal of the numbers of Christian children required, and the figures didn't add up). You can't imagine how annoying it was to explain this to the various Sisters, when none of them would even listen.

C_R_Eature

I'd fly out there just to see that and I Hate flying.

Chichikovovich

"where 22,000 people were so uneducated and so unprepared, they literally couldn't get out of the way of a hurricane."

But, but…. I thought nobody could have predicted the breach of the dikes. Bush said so.

tessiee

Lots of people predicted it. Hell, blues musicians were writing songs about "When the Levee Breaks" back in the 1930s. But, of course, they were blah, so why pay attention to them?

Yeah, if it hadn't been for the fact that NOAA REPEATEDLY warned the fucking idiots in the Bush admin … I mean, it's one ting to say them old blues singers are blah, what the hell do they know. It's quite another when someone hands you a piece of paper showing predicted landfall and water levels.

Chichikovovich

Ladies and gentlemen that was another fine post from tessie! Let's have a big round of applause!

Ask any woman, black or white, what they would do under the circs. Just last month, some lady got arrested not too far from here for removing her husband's equipment and tossing it in the garbage disposal. Teh Laydeez, they haz lots of angree when it comes to being cheated on.

tessiee

Or that he's sitting in a high-backed chair in his secret hideout, petting a white cat in his lap and plotting, "Now what evil scheme can I use *today* to make Newt look like a scuzzy, worthless shitbag?" You know, because that's difficult and requires a lot of effort.

PsycWench

Newt has a Ph.D. and made over $3 million dollars last year. Most reporters I know make about 1/100th of that. How is he measuring elitism exactly?

under_score

It's the hypocrisy, stupid

Biel_ze_Bubba

Hey, come on, people — he just wanted an "opem marriage", and he probably was hoping for some 3-way action, too. The man's just got a very active imagination, that's all.

Open relationships require honesty — which can be pretty fucking painful under the circs — and a willingness to acknowledge the primary relationship and work out any problems that arise, with everyone's needs being met as fairly as possible. It's hard enough and painful enough having ONE relationship.

Newt didn't want an "open marriage." He wanted his wife to wink at his keeping a mistress, which is a whole different kettle of fish.

Negropolis

Yeah, I kind of winced at Marianne categorizing it as an open marriage. And open marriage is something both partners agree to beforehand, or both agree on sometime within the marriage. It's not a one-way street. If you have to coerce or finesse the partner into it, it ain't an open marriage.

Newt didn't want an open marriage; Newt wanted an excuse.

tessiee

"If you have to coerce or finesse the partner into it, it ain't an open marriage.

Newt didn't want an open marriage; Newt wanted an excuse."

Yeah, like if you find out that your husband is a lying, cheating, smug, self-satisfied, morbidly obese crapweasel, and you go upside his head and fracture his thick, white-haired skull with a baseball bat, and say, "But Newtie Honey, I just wanted you to be more open-minded".

See wut I mean? Teh Laydeez, they don't care so much for teh cheating.

Guppy

I think we're reaching the point where "elite" means "not suffering from diabetes."

hebmskebm

Hey, my father is an awesome, hyperintelligent progressive type and he has diabeetus! He's also a fat fuck, but still.

I thought it meant, "dares to question anything a Republican says, ever, instead of just groveling blindly", but yours is good, too.

Barb

Sarah Palin said that the interview with Newt's ex wife would "help him to soar even more."

Barb

Newt dumped his wife and daughters, leaving them to turn to the church for financial aid. How Presidential is that?

I just read my husband's tweet:
I'm calling Newt, the Pats and the Niners this weekend. He's been hanging out with Nate Silver for too long.

Negropolis

And, yet, his daughters are on TV protecting his ass. Disgusting.

Barb

No daughter should have to discuss if their dad is a skank pronger or not. They are never going to frolic in the White House, rub elbows with celebs and royalty and appear on the cover of magazines. They will go down in history as the daughters of a dad who liked women who thought they were going down on a man who would be POTUS. They were just going down on a man who is going down.

Is he using them? Neither Newt, nor anyone he has ever married (first wife slept with her 16 year old student, other two wives are adulterers), seems to have any integrity, so the apple ain't running away from the tree.

They work for him and are indebted to him financially. And it's pretty tacky to put your kids in the middle of your fucked up relationship. Especially when they can't really fight back. Although I'd rather eat cold earth than put up with this piece of dog's vomit.

Biel_ze_Bubba

You don't think kids ought to have to go out in public to discuss their dad's sexual escapades, and defend his serial adulteries and divorces? Newt doesn't think that's at all tacky.
Besides, in South Carolina, the thinking seems to be, "Eh, could be worse … he could be a Mormon."

It's bad enough that most people have to think about the fact that they are living proof their parents had sex, once. It's bad enough to have to think about your parents having sex. I really feel for Newt's children. From the bottom of my heart.

Mittens is resetting expectations downward, even as we speak, as hordes of slightly-less-than-ruly Brigham Young Moronians are running wild at his rallies in SC.

Biel_ze_Bubba

Running wild, as in knocking on doors, wearing white shirts and skinny ties and nametags? Trying to convert you to moronsim so you'll think Mitt's the man?

Apparently, it's more in the nature of showing up at his rallies holding placards/signs with his name and yelling "Mitt." What this is supposed to *do* is beyond me, but Mittens has roundly denied paying for the charter bus that schlepped these wilding youth to the environs of SC.

Biel_ze_Bubba

showing up at his rallies holding placards/signs with his name and yelling "Mitt."

It's a dirty job, but someone's got to do it. (And you know we can't, er, "coordinate" with the guy.)

Toomush_Infer

Like that Bush JD who sang on Air Force One: "Like an Eagle Flies…" What was his name?…

For the first time in decades, a very small part of Newt moved on stage, unaided by blue pills or denture-free Stepford wives.
Much like the Seinfeld where George had the mango and felt it move.
He's still a King-sized prick…Newt, not George.

Data Exactly

"Was there a highlight to tonight’s GOP debate?"

You also missed Ron Paul almost calling Rick Santorum a whippersnapper.

With the diapers, the toe-tapping, the meth-fueled minister/rent boy trysts, and poking the Administrative Aide's wife and then firing him (need I go on?), hiking the Appalachian trail seems healthy and Newt looks like a man who just needs a wee bit variety in his life.

Think of it as taking a little bit of the flu virus to keep from getting the flu. Gamecocks, indeed.

James Michael Curley

Whoa! Just starting to pump in the caffeine and I was thinking while Wonkette slowly loaded, "Maybe I'll change my avatar to the cover of Springsteen's new album (and throw a big FU at Cris Dodd)" Then I see your's and Upstage(d)!

Hey, go for it. I really like the image on Wrecking Ball — good title, too. I just found out my Jukes pal, baritone sax player Eddie Manion, is on the album. He played on The Promise, too, so I'm not surprised but very pleased and hoping he'll get to tour even though it would be a blow to the Jukes. Ed deserves the money.

SorosBot, read Wayne Madsen, a top notch investigative journalist and discovered that in Chicago, both Barack and Rahm go clubbing at gay bathhouses and have lifetime memberships in Man World or some such bathhouse. waynemadsenreport.com but you'll need to pay $7 but it's worth it. Wayne went to Chicago and did his detective work very, very well.

If South Carolina had two debates figure Florida has ten? Onion/Food Channel and some others, probably three in The Villages alone. The Pensacola/Pepsi Cola Drive-in Debate will be a highlight, they're gonna measure approval/disapproval by car horns, followed by a demolition derby where each candidate gets his own clown car.

The only line from Shakespeare I want to hear is from King Lear: And my poor fool is hanged.

Gainsbourg69

Republicans don't give a shit about substance or character anymore. They just want someone who will shout stuff at that socialist, muslim negro in the white house. This is why Newt will win his party's nomination.

SayItWithWookies

Anyone who wonders how Newt still manages to get women to marry him need look no further than this few minutes — a cynical pathological jackass can go a long way by lying, stonewalling, bullshitting and — finally — acting out a full-spinnakered indignance when questioned or called out on it. It's a complete manipulator move, and of course his crowd loves it. I just hope they're happy with this third-rate emperor when he wants to enforce the morality that he feels is good enough for everybody else but doesn't apply to him.

Biel_ze_Bubba

They'll be really upset when, as President, he dumps the USA for a younger, better-looking country.

"Anyone who wonders how Newt still manages to get women to marry him need look no further than this few minutes — a cynical pathological jackass can go a long way by lying, stonewalling, bullshitting and — finally — acting out a full-spinnakered indignance when questioned or called out on it."

Unfortunately, the women who are attracted to this type are all too often treated to a very unpleasant manifestation of it; the "Why do you do that, when you know it makes me hit you?" speech.

I wish someone could have got the look on his face when he was being lectured by Dr. Crazy Paul. He looked like Alfalfa. I was laughing out loud.

Callyson

Wonkette's on that one too: check the articles in the upper right hand corner.

SexySmurf

Then as Newt left the stage, he tripped on an electrical cord and said, "Damn elitist electrical cords: always tripping Republicans." Later outside the studio it started to rain. Newt exclaimed, "Typical of elitist weather with its fancy precipitation. Barack Obama never gets wet." Back at the hotel, Newt turned on the TV and starting watching Storage Wars: "That Dave Hester is so elitist." Newt observed, "always driving the bid up on Republican storage lockers like an elitist. Elitist, elitist, elitist…"

Lionel[redacted]Esq

Gingrich was terribly upset that they asked him a question about the leading story of the day and gave him a chance to reply, which he did with his totally prepared remarks and anger. How dare CNN, How dare they. FOX would have never asked a Republican an embarrassing question.

In which case, the audience would take over and let that blah person know what some of his ancestors might have felt like under similar circumstances. You know. In a roomfull of hostile white folks. Poor Juan!

I don't like Juan and never have. But it is pretty damn uncomfortable to sit in a roomful of hostile people who hate you simply because of the colour of your skin, since goodness knows Juan has no content or character. I'm sure when he rushed over to Pox, badmouthing public television as he ran, he little thought his bootlicking would be so cruelly repaid. He's about to find out that the much-lauded "diversity" of his new employer does not include the right of the "diverse" to be uppitty.

tessiee

"he little thought his bootlicking would be so cruelly repaid"

Bootlicking usually is; overlords are notoriously bad about not holding up their end of the bargain.

Which, of course, then makes you wonder why the suckers keep falling for it.

Although, in international politics, for example, it is well-known that being an "ally" of the US spells trouble both at home and abroad, for most Browns. Yet, they have few choices, since if they don't "ally," their neighbours who might have hostile intentions upon some turbid and unusable swampland of theirs (see, e.g., Rann of Kutch, etc.) will doubtless seize the offered opportunity and any arms that come with.

They just don't get it, do they?
Republicans have been saying since the Reagan years that it's bad form for reporters to ask questions.
Can't they just sit there in awe-stricken silence, like they're supposed to?

Serfville

Picturing Madame Tussaud wax figure Calista in a 3 way with pig fart Newtie, the definition of Hypocrisy, is "Halloween #135 The Return of Swinger Speaker of Thee House."

Lionel[redacted]Esq

Actually, more than Newt's little mock outrage, I thought it was more interesting that Romney still hasn't figured out a good answer to Bain or his Tax Returns. You have to wonder how much junk is in there that he is trying not to release anything until he hopefully has the Republican nomination wrapped up.

And when he does release them, it will be 2011's return that an army of accountants is now working on to INCREASE his taxes. What I want to see is the 2008 return, the one right after he lost to McCain. The IRS probably refunded what he did pay by 150%.

Lionel[redacted]Esq

He is unemployed, so his tax returns can't be that complicated.

Biel_ze_Bubba

Well you know being faithful to the Republican Party is FAR MORE important that remaining faithful to 'da spouse who 'happens' not to go along with his plan to take up to four wives – as the Quran states.

She didn't care until she became Mrs. Gingrich and NOW she won't let him out of her sight. Smart lady.

Open Marriage to Newt means finding a woman to open up to folds of his gut to find his little 1-3/4" gingrich.

Sorry. Had enough of this pig back in 1995.

GhostBuggy

This is…this is just out of control. What a fucking baby. All he's done for the entire campaign is bitch about the press. He started it with whining that Chris Fucking Wallace was too hard on him, and it just gets more and more obnoxious.

The way this entire thing is going, here's what I think Republican Debate #4,286 will look like (which, at this rate, should be in about four hours from now):

-Mitt Romney will stare into the camera, unspeaking and crying, until he suddenly walks off stage, sits in the audience and begins invoking the names of ancient gods long ago forgotten.

-Rick Santorum will spontaneously combust.

-Ron Paul will strip nude and, while shrieking at the top of his lungs about overregulation, slowly remove each tooth with pliers. When finished, he'll gum the words, "Finally, now there is time for sleep, I'm so very tired," and lay down and curl up.

-The audience, about half of which having begun the final, mad transformation into the grotesque Chosen Ones as Romney continues his chanting, can't stop applauding despite their palms becoming red with blood.

-And Newt Gingrich WILL STILL BE CRYING ABOUT EVERYONE BEING SO MEAN.

Negropolis

Hi-LARIOUS! Bwahahaha!

Though, of the four remaining, I totally imagine one going back stage, taking out of a rifle, and just randomly firing into the crowd.

GhostBuggy

Which, of course, would receive a standing ovation from the survivors.

And Newt pulled his DAUGHTERS into his faux tantrum, in the uber-icky attempt to humanize himself and make this NOT about whether or not he is a loathsome amoral pathetic gruesome pig who can't treat any women within 5 feet of his flabby groin as if they are not a blow-up doll, but about whether or not his daughters will feel uncomfortable. Newt, your daughters will feel uncomfortable because YOU ARE THEIR FATHER, because you dumped their cancer inflicted mom in her hospital bed, because you did not pay child support and their mom had to go to food pantries, because you have such a crap record with women your poor daughters probably have no idea how a decent male human behaves with women (hint: no poop throwing), because you are a hypocrite, because you are a pussrunning sore on the face of mankind. That is why your daughters are unhappy.

pinkocommi

What is most surprising about this story is that there was not one, but two women willing to have sex with Newt during his lifetime. Because there is not enough Tiffany diamonds to make me go near that conceited, morally-repugnant, lardy windbag of a man.

They would *have* to be to surrender to the ministrations of this loathsome man. There is nothing *positive* that you can say about him. Even Dumbya, stupid as he was, repulsive as he was, was friendly enough in his stupid hick fashion. Newt has … a vile pit for a soul. Nobody likes him. Except these pitiful women.

Not enough Tiffany diamonds…you said it. I'll take the cubic zirconia, thanks…

tessiee

As difficult as it is to believe, "lardy" is the least ot that "man"'s problems. He's like a poisonous snake; anyone with a shred of self-preservation instinct would have to be repelled by his aura of hateful bitterness.

Dashboard Buddha

""The destructive, vicious, negative nature of much of the news media makes it harder to govern this country, harder to attract decent people to run for public office. "

"And I am appalled that you would begin a presidential debate on a topic like that,"

Trust us, Newt…we're all appalled that someone like you, someone who isn't qualified to be a walmart greeter, is considered "presidential".

Troglodeity

Right now I am picturing a sweaty, naked, jiggly Newt, fat little toes curling up as he approaches orgasm, squealing in that distinctive voice of his "Oh yes, Callista!" – as his adulterous lover's bug-eyed face bobs up and down on his tiny member, her blond hair still amazingly, perfectly coiffed, her skinny, saggy, pasty tits swinging rythmically. All in Marianne's rumpled bed.

Oh but the independs [sic], swing voters, and conservatards lap that up like it was a bowl of santorum. "YEAH MEDIUH! PROTECTIN ELITES LIKE OBAMARS AND OPRAH! HEY NEWT ISNT SO ESTABLISHMINT AFTERALL DUUUUHH NOMNOMNOM"

chicken_thief

And he managed to get a drawn out "Hollywood" in the SOPA response. Newt knows how to work the base. And, no, in this context "working the base" is not a Larry Craig reference.

tessiee

Upfist for your new avatar. That really is a face made for punching in, isn't it?

Newt Gingrich strikes me as someone that once got a highish IQ score and took it too much to heart. You can tell when he gets this squinting gleam in his little pig eyes that he thinks he's going to fool everybody. But the only people buying his bullshit are the devoted Fox viewers, and of course, Newt himself.

I wonder, if in moments of quiet reflection, does Callista asks herself were all the baubles were worth it?

She's young enough to outlive him especially considering his weight and possible other health problems. She probably sees it as a 20 year career with a great retirement ahead. Lousy job but great retirement benefits.

tessiee

"I wonder, if in moments of quiet reflection, does Callista asks herself were all the baubles were worth it?"

Meh *shrug*, it's not like she was working on world peace or a cure for cancer, or anything that might have been considered an accomplishment, on her own. She was only ever gonna be *someone's* Stepford trophy wife; she might as well be Newtle's as anybody else's.

tessiee

"Newt Gingrich strikes me as someone that once got a highish IQ score and took it too much to heart."

And the only reason he even got that is because he was sleeping with the teacher.

DarwinianDemon

The best line of the debate is being missed by everyone…it was Mitt saying he earned everything he has and he didn't get anything from his dad (who was a poor from Mexico)

I couldn't find a clip but here's the text:“My dad, as you know, born in Mexico. Poor. Didn’t get a college degree. Became head of a car company. I could’ve stayed in Detroit like him and gotten pulled up in the car company. I went off on my own. I didn’t inherit money from my parents. What I have, I earned. I work hard the American way. I’m going to be able to talk to President Obama the way no one else can that’s in this race right now, about how the free economy works.”

In and out of homeless shelters, his family cut him off. Eating out of garbage cans as he'd have you believe. Poor, poor Mitt.

I also like the "didn't get a college degree. became head of a car company". His father must be the only fucking person in the world besides maybe Henry Ford that can say that.

Well, its hard to inherit money when your parents don't die until you're around 50.

Biff

Pretty sure that's a fine line between "inheritance" and "gift" when it comes to taxation.

BarackMyWorld

Mitt has certainly overcome the handicap of having a rich, powerful father. I'm sure he got lots of doors slammed in his face when people found out he was son of the governor of Michigan and a member of Richard Nixon's cabinet.

Negropolis

George was a pretty remarkable man. I guess the best description of him would be a hustler who made good. He, indeed, never got a college degree, and he worked his way up by connecting himself to powerful patrons (particularly his wife's family) that gave him chances, and he took them and ran with them. Yeah, the guy was a hustler, though, unlike his son, he actually had to work for much of his early life.

iburl

Yes, sons of 3 time governors have no special privileges in life.

tessiee

"I’m going to be able to talk to President Obama the way no one else can"

Not just "not born in the U.S.A." George's father left the US for Mexico to protest the polygamy laws. He *renounced* his citizenship in protest. George Romney was not born to a US citizen father, but to a Mexican citizen.

Now, those of us as know better know that that don't mean shit IF George Romney's mother was a US citizen or if George Romney was born on US soil. OR if George Romney applied for US citizenship upon his return to the US.

But isn't it interesting that not a single person has even raised the question, despite all these damning facts?

DahBoner

"He was the youngest child of George W. Romney, automobile executive…When he was five, the family moved from Detroit to the affluent suburb of Bloomfield Hills….from seventh grade on, attended Cranbrook School in Bloomfield Hills, a private boys preparatory school of the classic mold where he was the lone Mormon and where many students came from even more privileged backgrounds"

He was SOOOO poor, the other kids had new Porches and Mercedes convertibles, while Mitt had to putter around in a used AMC Pacer (with Levi's interior and 8-track player)….

tessiee

Porsches and Mercedeses in *Michigan*? Even in an "affluent suburb" of Detroit? Not in those days.

Negropolis

Hell, not even now, really. Even up to the 80's union folk were vandlizing foreign cars in their plants' parking lots, and wasn't their some big dust-up at the UAW Solidarity House in downtown Detroit a few years ago of someone one being denied a parking space in the garage because they were driving something foreign? The UAW does not pay, let me tell you.

Extemporanus

Newt Gingrich clearly couldn't handle that question because it was a Jaguar, and all he wanted was a Chevrolet.

Barb

The longer the campaign goes on the sooner we will find out that he also had a Buick LaCrosse-Dresser. It's just a matter of time.

Extemporanus

Judging by his current ride, I'd say that he's definitely blown a tranny.

The real problem he had, was that he wanted to drive them both at the same time.

Am I the only one with a man-crush on Newt? Isn't there something at least a little bit heroic–and, yes, dreamy–about being able to lie so big? Dude may be a fraud but at least he's a GOLD PLATED fraud! Newt FTW!!!

The grass is always blonder on the other side of a bleach manufacturing plant.

The fact that Newt married one of his high school teachers says more about the quality of educators that are willing to teach in The South than anything else.

They probably both considered it an accomplishment, since they weren't each other's blood relatives.

So in the last week or so, we have gone from urinating on corpses to dumping your wife when she gets a serious illness as examples of "family values". Which just shows once again that it simply is projection when the teabaggers (or whatever they are calling themselves this week to try to make everyone forget about their many, many failures) shriek about "liberalism being a mental illness".

That Rick Perry guy is right. Most people that cheat at a thing may also cheat at many other things like Connect Four, Stratego, Mystery Date, Yahtzee or read the last page of a book first and use cheat codes to find all of the atomic armor. You have to watch that Gingrich all the time if you are playing a game with him.

Of course, Rick Perry gets confused playing Candyland, but otherwise, I agree.

Oh, this from the same guy who helped spearhead a 70 million dollar oral sex investigation against President Bill Clinton, but now maintains that threesomes, or perhaps double dildos stuck up Marianne and Callista simultaneously (you know Callista wouldn't mind) or maybe even some girl fisting isn't an appropriate subject. What hypocrisy.

"But that's priiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiivate and none of your business! (Unlike what other consenting adults do with their bodies in their bedrooms, which is totally my business to regulate.)"

Newt shows the qualities we need in a President – someone who can lure a foreign country with babbles to get them to do something with us – and then not feel badly about dumping them in a ditch the next day when a prettier, sexier country comes along.

Newt/Sarah 2012!!!!!

I hereby nominate Newt to be President of Getting-Kicked-in-the-Balls-by-Every-Woman-in-America-who've-been-Cheated-on-and/or-left-for-some-Golddigging-young-Tart

I like this better. We don't want to discriminate against the women and men who have never been cheated on.

"And there all the GOPeers were all in one place
A generation lost in space
With no time left to lie again
So come on, Newt be sleazy, Mitt be job destroyin'
Blame it all on Barack Obama
Cause lying is the devil's only friend
And as I watched them on the stage
My hands were clenched in fists of rage
No Tea Party panderer born in Hell
Could break those demagogues' spell
And as the flames climbed high into the night
To light the sacrificial rite
I saw Satan laughing with delight
The day the GOP died
He was singin'
Bye, bye American sanity…"

And of course, the media is braying that he "won". Again, never mind the offense, he "won". "These aren't the droids you're looking for".

You know, the more I hear about Newt, the less I'm sure that "a revolving line of credit at Tiffany" isn't code for regular outings to a DC strip club.

Callista may be getting diamonds from Tiffany; but Newt is getting something else entirely from Tiffany…

Chichikovovich

And Brittany, and Mystique, and Cherish…

And let's just say that his book about Reagan wasn't the only thing that could be called "A Date with Destiny", ifyaknow whattimean.

That is one nasty f@cker. Calling his ex-wife a liar. Trying to use his daughters as human shields. Pathetic. Disgusting.

Keep flinging the feces, Newt, and you will surely earn your South Carolina GOP Win.

BaldarTFlagass

Somebody should have told Newt that the qualifications for third wife include a fuckability quotient, i.e. is she hot and would other guys like to fuck her? Trophy wife fail.

Negropolis

To be fair, Callista is what we call "Republican Pretty." That is to say that she's had the skin of recently deceased orphans grafted onto, and stretched so taut over, her natural skin as to repel the hardest substance known to man, a hair coiffed something so fierce as to deflect hurricane force winds, a body in such a shape as to be passibly attractive, and most important the ability to suspend her dignity and self-awareness for years at a time. She's Stepford Pretty.

"To be fair, Callista is what we call "Republican Pretty.""

Very thin,
Very white,
Very blonde,
Smiles a lot in every circumstance,
No thoughts or opinions of her own.

BaldarTFlagass

And now Newt has a six point lead in the polls. I guess the SC Republican electorate's moral compass is as erratic as his.

No, this is just another demonstration of how much the electorate *hates* Bishop Willard "Mitt the Fuckface" RMONEY.

stanpan

Most people laughed at the Otter Defense from "Animal House". Newtie, however, had an epiphany. He knew someday it could come in handy if he got his stubby Newtie Jr caught in a wringer. Seems to have worked with the audience.

NewtsUndies

Now I'm embarrassed by my choice of username. Why did I do it?

tessiee

Because someone had already claimed, "MittsMagicPanties"?

Newtie lives, and has always lived, but the motto "do as I say, not as I do".

Is asking about your affair more or less despicable than cheating on your MS-stricken wife?

Ruhe

"There is a GOP debate every four or five hours, constantly, forever, and there cannot be a highlight to something that is ongoing and eternal"

If only this relentless and yet pointless expenditure of energy could be converted into an intergalactic propulsion system…like the Bistromatic Drive. But rather than relying on the unique behavior of numerical equations within the confines of a Bistro, this system would exploit the singular self-loathing of rationality itself that occurs within a republican debate.

Newt Ginrich is a Southern Gentleman???

Why, southern gentlemen screwed their slaves, produced mixed-race children and then secured a tidy profit by selling them off to the highest bidder.

They were true entrepreneurs!

How many jobs has Newt Gingrich created for slave auctioneers lately???

I am lying in my hotel room, 2 hours out of my timezone, a little drunk, AND STILL I AM NOT STUPID ENOUGH FOR THIS "I"m appalled" SHIT. (I do however have a different opinion of stiff hair, loose body Callista) What sucks for Newt is that he started the "CHARACTER DOES COUNT" BULLSHIT that they actually made a bumper sticker out of, and unfortunately for that twatbag, they STILL HAVE THEM AROUND HERE (not here Vegas, but here Bama). My own grandmother sports one TODAY on her NEW car. SO all this, being appalled about Clinton was then, being appalled with the media is NOW BLATHER is not going to to work. People still tote that shit around on their foreheads here and Newt is FUCKED. I KNOW they cheered him at the debate, but in their hearts and hypocritical minds, they know this is nothing but cognitive dissonance at its FINEST – and more of Newt's "if ya quote me you're a liar" ass-blowing. I gotta get up and drink more. Y'all have a great day.

Tommy1733

How disgusting to hear the vigorous applause and hoots from the audience as Gingrich turns on the Mean and sidesteps the question. This is the problem with our political system – ignorant people, and lots of them.
